Description

Simpler is often better, and if you prefer going light and moving fast in the woods, mountains and beyond, the Tempest 30 is the pack for you. 30L of capacity is perfect for committing day hikes and lightweight overnight trips. Ventilated and comfortable, the women's specific BioStretch™ harness and continuous wrap hipbelt combine to create an incredibly stable carrying system that hugs your body so you can stay balanced on the trail, ridge or peak. We scratched our heads and updated our AirScape™ backpanel to use less material and glue while making it more breathable to keep you cool on hot days. When uphills turn technical, our Stow-on-the-Go™ trekking pole carry system keeps your hands free for upward movement. Zippered hipbelts, side stretch mesh pockets with dual access, a harness pocket and top-lid storage provide all the organization you need.

This is my third Osprey pack, so I thought I would have no problem with the Tempest 30. I have the Ariel 65 and the Tempest 16, and they have both been great packs for me. However, the Tempest 30 feels uncomfortable, due to the ventilation system, which I believe is an update. The back of my Ariel 65 and Tempest 16 looks like a washboard under the mesh. My new Tempest 30 has the accordion shape under the mesh, and it presses uncomfortably against my back. I've tried different adjustments with the pack but nothing has helped. Do you have any suggestions?
